| Saturday hours but total race distance and climb. Distance estimated by rolling route and adding 10%. Gain estimated by counting contours and adding 20%. the course was basically a north and south loop. the N loop was larger. We started on the n loop first and Peteris/nickoli went to the S loop first. The numbers below are roller straight line distance, time, rolled actual distance, climb ft, points, pts/hr, spd/hr, climb/hr
10k, 2:00, 11k, 1536, 260, 130, 5.5k/h, 770 It was sunny and clear for this first section. It included a fair amount or trail/road running. Nav was spot on. There was one 30 pointer that we should have left but we were expecting to clear the course 20k, 2:30/4:30, 13.2k, 2830, 390/650, 156/144, 5.3, 1132 Daylight with heavy rain. Almost all off trail. We made good time and were running well on the flats/downhills. nav was spot on maybe one spot were we could have taken a more direct route. 30k, 2:30/7:00, 11k, 1872, 340/990, 136/141, 4.4k/h, 749 Day with light rain. almost all on trail road. Nav was still spot on. One spot were we could have taken a more direct off trail route. Peteris/nickoli had finished the small loop at this point and they had collected 1000 pts compared to our 990. 40k, 3:00/10:00, 12.75k, 1416, 300/1290, 100/129, 4.25k/h, 472 evening we put our lights on at the end of this section. 60% trail. Made on nav error on the last control. We should have left the control. it was only 40 and was a large dogleg. we were still on target so we got it. This control alone probably added 45 minutes. Nighttime last section back to hash house 15.6k, 8:00/18:00, 19.4, 3650, 580/1870, 73/104, 2.4k/h, 456 This is were the wheels seemed to fall off. It was dark and very foggy and there were waist hight nettles everywhere. I think that we made only one nav error which cost us 1/2 hour and two other smaller errors, but our pace was slow. We were very careful with the nav. we walked this whole section. the ratio of actul route to straight line route is rather high and would be a good benchmark for future rogaines. Last section on smaller south loop 14.5k, 6:00/24:00, 21k, 3120, 450/2320, 75/97, 3.5k/h, 520 It was now daylight and sunny. Matt's knee was messed up. We had to adj our route to account for the time constraint and our slower speed. One nav error which ultimately didn't cost us and on the last control we had a very weak attack point and no time. We blew past it and left the 50 points as we headed for home. Our route optimization was very poor as noted by the 1.45 ration of direct route to actual route. peteris and nickoli collected all 1000 point on this section in 7 hrs. we collected 1/2 in 6 hrs. we finish 250 points behind but since we peteris isn't a citizen their team didn't qualify for the championship and we claimed the title....again. | ||

| Got a great nights sleep. I must have worked a little this weekend because my shoulders were sore and this was a slow swim. Finally weight is coming down. Goal is under 170 by gorge games.
Had a root canal today. I would throw myself down class 5 rapids on a board, face 20 foot pacific swells or ride/run for hours gladly before I would choose to do that again. They had to tell me to relax continually. I was completely white knuckled and I found my body actually shaking as the guy was working in my mouth | ||
